I'm not sure where OT questions go......
My elderly father-in-law looking at buying a 2000 FORD Windstar van. Does anyone have any feedback to help me to help him decide? |

Our family kid haulers were a Ford Aerostar, Ford Taurus, and Ford Windstar Van in that order. All were OK, did everything we wanted them to do, and ended up being traded at approximately 80,000 miles. The interiors were all comfortable, the AC blew cold, and the only real problelm areas for us were the transmissions, assume you need to get them rebuilt at 50,000 miles. Luckily, extended warrenties paid for the two that we needed.
Not the most exciting vehicles, but did what they had to do for us. |
